This Privacy Policy explains how b998 collects, processes, stores and protects your personal data when you use our Platform. We are committed to handling your information with transparency, integrity and respect — whether you are browsing from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad or anywhere else in Pakistan.
These cards summarise the core privacy principles built into the b998 Platform. Please read the full policy below for complete details.
All personal data transmitted through the b998 Platform is protected by SSL/TLS encryption. Identity documents submitted for KYC are processed only via the Operator's secure HTTPS verification portal — never through unsecured channels.
b998 does not sell, rent or trade your personal data to unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes. Data is shared only where required by law, for platform operations, or with explicitly disclosed service partners.
You have the right to access, correct, export or request deletion of your personal data held by the Operator, subject to legal retention obligations. Requests can be submitted through the support channels described in this Policy.
Data collected from you is used only for the purposes stated in this Policy — account management, KYC compliance, service improvement and legal obligations. We do not use your data for purposes incompatible with those disclosures.
b998 uses cookies primarily for essential platform functionality, security and basic analytics. Marketing cookies are limited and clearly disclosed. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
This Policy clearly describes what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, who it may be shared with, and how long it is retained. No hidden processing activities exist beyond what is disclosed here.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how b998 ("the Platform", "we", "us" or "our") collects, uses, stores, shares and protects personal data from users ("you", "your") who access and use the Platform at https://b998.cam and its associated services.
b998 is an English-language online betting and casino platform designed for adult users, with a particular focus on Pakistani users. The Platform displays account balances and illustrative figures in Pakistani Rupees (PKR), defaults to Pakistan Standard Time (PKT, UTC+5), and features content relevant to cricket, PSL, ICC tournaments and other sporting events of interest to users in Pakistan.
The Operator — the legal entity responsible for running the Platform under an applicable gaming licence — is the data controller in respect of personal data collected through the Platform. This Policy applies to all data processing activities conducted in relation to registered and unregistered users of the Platform.
By accessing or registering on b998, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, you should not use the Platform.
This Policy does not constitute legal advice under Pakistani law. The Operator is not affiliated with the Government of Pakistan, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), the State Bank of Pakistan or any Pakistani provincial authority. References to payment providers such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah are made for familiar local context only — they do not imply any data-sharing arrangement with those institutions unless explicitly stated.

The Operator processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity:
b998 does not sell, rent or trade your personal data to unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes. Personal data may be disclosed in the following circumstances:
The Operator engages third-party service providers who process personal data on its behalf under formal data-processing agreements. These include, but may not be limited to:
All such processors are contractually required to process data only in accordance with the Operator's instructions and applicable data protection law.
Personal data may be disclosed to regulatory authorities, gaming licencing bodies, law enforcement agencies or courts where required by applicable law, a valid court order or a lawful authority request. The Operator will not disclose more data than is necessary to satisfy the specific legal requirement.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of business assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such transfer and of any material change to this Policy that results from it.
References to Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah on this Platform are contextual only. The Operator does not share user personal data with these institutions in any manner beyond what may be technically necessary to process a specific payment transaction you have initiated.
The Operator retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law or regulatory obligation. The following general principles apply:
On expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with the Operator's data management procedures.
The Operator implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction. These measures include:
While the Operator maintains robust security infrastructure, you are also responsible for protecting your account. Use a strong, unique password; do not share credentials; enable two-factor authentication if available; and always log out from shared or public devices. Report any suspected unauthorised account access to support immediately.
No data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If a data breach occurs that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights or interests, the Operator will notify you without undue delay in accordance with applicable notification requirements.
b998 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the Platform. The following categories of cookies are in use:
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using the Platform's core features, though some functionality may be affected. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their privacy or settings menu.
Subject to applicable data protection law and any legal retention obligations, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data held by the Operator:
Request a copy of the personal data the Operator holds about you, along with information about how and why it is being processed.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held in your account. You may also update many details directly through your account settings.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected, subject to legal retention requirements (such as AML record-keeping).
Request that the Operator restrict processing of your data — for example, while a dispute about accuracy or lawfulness is being resolved — rather than deleting it outright.
Where processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means, request that your data be provided in a structured, machine-readable format.
Object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, or to the use of your data for direct marketing communications at any time.
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact the Operator's support team using the details set out in Section 15. The Operator will respond to all valid requests within a reasonable timeframe and, where applicable, within any period required by law. You will not be charged a fee for exercising your rights in ordinary circumstances.
The b998 Platform is strictly for adults aged 18 years or older — or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or licensing jurisdiction. The Platform does not knowingly collect or process personal data from individuals below the required minimum age.
Age verification is conducted as part of the KYC process. If the Operator discovers that personal data has been collected from a person below the minimum age threshold, that account will be closed immediately, the data will be deleted in accordance with applicable legal requirements, and any associated funds will be handled in accordance with the Operator's underage-user policy.
Parents or guardians who believe a minor has accessed or registered on the Platform are encouraged to contact support immediately so that the account can be investigated and appropriate action taken.
The Operator and its service partners may process personal data in countries outside Pakistan. Where such transfers occur to countries that do not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that required by applicable law, the Operator will implement appropriate safeguards — such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms — to ensure your data remains protected.
By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred and processed in locations outside Pakistan in connection with the delivery of the Platform's Services.
The Operator reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Where changes are material — for example, a change to the categories of data collected, a new purpose for processing, or a change to your rights — the Operator will provide reasonable notice prior to the updated Policy taking effect. Notice may be provided via a notification on the Platform or by email to your registered address.
The "Effective Date" and "Last Reviewed" dates at the top of this document indicate when the current version was published. Your continued use of the Platform after a revised Policy has been published constitutes your acceptance of those changes. If you do not agree, you should cease using the Platform and may request account closure in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.
If you have any questions, concerns or requests relating to this Privacy Policy or to the processing of your personal data, please contact the b998 support team through the following channels:
When submitting a data-related request, please include your registered account username or email address and a clear description of your request so it can be handled efficiently and directed to the appropriate team.
